❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How much should I tip?
Standard tipping etiquette varies by country. In the US, 15-20% is standard for good service. In Europe, service is often included, but a small round-up is appreciated. In India, 10% is common at restaurants.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Etiquette suggests tipping on the pre-tax amount (subtotal). However, for simplicity, many people tip on the final total. Our calculator allows you to enter the bill amount you wish to base the tip on.
How do I split the bill fairly?
The simplest way is to split the total (Bill + Tip) equally among all people. Our calculator does this automatically. For large groups with very different orders, an itemized split might be fairer, but an equal split is faster.
Is it rude not to tip?
In countries with a tipping culture (like the US), not tipping is considered rude unless the service was terrible. In countries like Japan or South Korea, tipping can be seen as offensive. Always check local customs.
What does 'Round Per Person' mean?
This feature rounds up the amount each person owes to the nearest whole number. This makes it easier for everyone to pay in cash without needing coins.
How should I choose a tip percentage?
Use the service quality presets as a guide (10–20%). Adjust for exceptional service, large groups, or local customs.
Should I tip before or after tax?
Etiquette often suggests pre‑tax, but many tip on the final total for simplicity. Either is fine—be consistent.
How do I split fairly among friends?
